I have a copy of the Enyaq owners manual.
The parking brake can be manually applied. In the manual ut states:
“Pull on the park brake utton and hold it.
The indicator light A in the switch and with PARK light up together in the instrument cluster.
Switching on automatically The parking brake turns on automatically after turning off the ignition.”
So, no different to both our Superb and Range Rovet, with just putting into park on an auto transmission being the difference.
I wouldn’t say the packsxare expensive, no more so than many other brands, plus the Sportlibe us very well Specced.
The base models have the specs they do to meet the governments tax reduction, don’t forget, most sales go to businesses not private individuals
